And as if you needed any more reason to purchase a Certified Pre-Owned BMW, right now at the First Ever Certified Pre-Owned Sales Event, BMW is offering financing rates starting at 0.9% or a three-payment credit worth up to $1,500 on all 2009 models and 2010 5 Series models.

In other words, there’s never been a better time to get your dream car at a dream price.

The way it works; if you are interested in purchasing a car you can take it for an independent inspection. Ask the seller if it's ok, if they say no, walk away. I've had one dealer drive the car themselves to my INDY shop. Your INDY will have a standard check list if they offer PPI's and will charge around $100-$150, sometimes less. You can also have them inspect certain areas of concern a bit closer than normal. The INDY will give you a green light, flat out say NO with reason(s), or say yes but you need to fix the following immediately. You can then negotiate with the seller based on what needs to be fixed.
